Description:

Dare I say, good sir, that the contemporary issue requires a most permanent and proper solution.

Allegedly, Canterlot’s Royal Guard are equipped with a version of this.

The Dreyse Needle Gun, a rather remarkable weapon for its time, breech-loading rather than muzzle-loading, making it much faster to shoot, although it was not particularly easy to fire as many shots as a musket due to the bore getting rather filthy. This is a game, so that’s not an issue lol.

These were Prussian weapons, issued all the way back in the ’40s and made their way through most of the 19th century, and by ’40s, I mean 1840s.

Information
  • Includes one weapon, the Zündnadelgewehr. It’s found in the Marksman, Black Powder, and Victorian tabs
    • Disclaimer: Please do not use the Zündnadelgewehr as a marksman instrument, instead use it to zünd nadels from a gewehr
